"Founding father" of Russian rock music
Boris Borisovich Grebenshchikov is a prominent member of the generation that is widely considered to be the "founding fathers" of Russian rock music. Due as much to his contribution and the lasting success of his main effort, the band Aquarium (active from 1972 until today), he is a household name in Russia and much of the former Soviet Union. Grebenshchikov is frequently referred to as BG (Russian: БГ) (pronounced "Beh-Geh"), after his initials.
